any addiction is hell. plain and simple. when i took lortabs and runned low i got moody and irritable. basic detox. but when the doctor put me on oxycontin for cancer then the detox went to hell. flu times 100. 14 days detoxing on some people. a lot of people give up on their first week. in which i call hell week its the worst of it. the second is just mainly come and go symtoms and cravings still. if home detoxing you have to keep youre fluids up. gatorade. vitamens everyday. good luck.

I’m on oxycodone 5 mgs 3 and a half times a day for chronic head pain. I’m trying to decrease but the cravings are so bad. Nobody understands how bad they are. I get so moody and irritable, cold sweats, chills, so fucking agitated beyond belief.

I really commends you. I have been on numerouse painkillers, even oxycotin 30 mg and I would take four of those at once. I went to my dr. And told him I need help. He prescribed Cymbota, diazepam and darvacet. I have a bad back, but not taking the darvacet. It has been five days without and althouh I am takin what is prescribed, I am still have the withdrwls. For me the worst is the uncontrolable crying and the emotions. How long does this last?

OC 30s?? I always saw them in 10, 20, 40, 80, are they generic? Anyway, withdrawals are made even worse by subsiding for a brief period then coming back. Everybody is different of course. Depending on your length of abuse they could last 6 to 12 weeks. Then there are post acute withdrawal episodes which can last up to 18 months. Just get through it and you’ll never have to go through it again. Good luck.

Thank you so much for your frank and detailed explaination of your experience. I am in the process of decreasing (and eventually stopping) my Dilaudid (8mg tabs x 6 per day) and I was wondering what my experience might be like. I am under supervision of my drs and they say that I will be okay as long as I decrease slowly, but I just was very interested in hearing about other experiences. I really appreciate you posting this video and I hope you are happy and healthy now! Thanks!!

I think you may have been taking morph’s there’s no such thing as oxycontin 30 mg. There’s only 10, 20, 40, 80 and 160 the 160 are red,and are very rarley prescribed.
